Patterns: Do I really have to write it out?

So, I'm working on several new patterns. All are in the design stage which means this: I'm too busy working on other projects to work on my designs, or I have no yarn to make them with so they are sitting there on the table, look at me saying "Please knit me. I want to be knit! You know I look warm and cozy. You know you want to knit me." I'm so sorry patterns! I don't have the time to knit you right now! Please hold on!

Anyways, hopefully before the new year I will have so many new patterns that I can take a week off. Hopefully. My main project/biggest project is a crazy fair isle cardigan that I'm making for a OWL on Ravelry group HPKCHC. It almost changes color every row, and I'm guessing I'll have somewhere near 500+ ends to weave in. That's going to be my favorite part of the whole thing. On second thought, maybe not. I thought I was almost done with the back, but I have to make it longer as I prefer not to freeze when I'm wearing it. On one of my designs I made the length 42 cm for a full length sweater, and this cardigan is cropped so they have it as 30 cm. I think I'll make it a half a repeat to a whole repeat longer, if I have yarn for it. And the larger sizes only go up 1 cm.  I also found out that my row gauge was off. I should have known. :) I think that all for today.

Oh! I forgot to mention this. I'm going to try and post progress on here at least once a week. :)

New Patterns!

Hi Everyone!
I have some patterns to post! These are my own designs, and they have been tested! :)
The first photo is my Airy Scalloped Scarf. The second photo is my Twisted Braid Legwarmers.
I'm a new designer! It's so much fun! That's it so far! I'm currently designing a scarf/cowl like object. I made one, but it was too short, so I'm making another and making it longer. I hope I don't run out of yarn again! :)
